Lab 2 – Reports, Graphs, and Diagrams Practice Starting a Precedence Network Considering that you have had an introduction in class to Precedence networks and the varied relationship types, today’s laboratory will give you good practice for preparing your next Project assignment. If you choose TOOLS from the upper menu, options and the activity inserting before you create or open your project, you can change the activity ID’s and the increments as you wish.

Lab 2 – Reports, Graphs, and Diagrams 2.1 Practice Starting a Precedence Network Considering that you have had an introduction in class to Precedence networks and the varied relationship types, today’s laboratory will give you good practice for preparing your next Project assignment. If you choose TOOLS from the upper menu, options and the activity inserting before you create or open your project, you can change the activity ID’s and the increments as you wish. Practice 2.1 1. On your own, create a new project using the last 4 digits of your social security number or student identification number. 2. This project is a valve and flowmeter vault being done for the City of Mesa. Include this information for your new project 3.

Calculate the project duration (refer to page 9 if you’ve forgotten). Be sure that there are no loops and only one activity without a predecessor and one without a successor. 5. Printout the calculation run – insert your name on the report before it prints (no penciled in names!). Save this for submission at the end of the class. 6. Answer the following questions by keying the questions and your answers on your calculation run: What date does your project end on? How many relationships does your project have ? 7. Backup your project up to diskette using the compressed mode. Be careful not to delete what is already on your disk. You can avoid this by backing up Primavera files to a new subdirectory. Primavera Lab Manual - Version 4 Spring 1999 24 Remember, to delete a project, highlight the project you want to delete and toggle the Delete Key. Respond Yes when prompted. Using Primavera to Create Reports: I will demonstrate and then you will perform the tasks on the following pages. Primavera Lab Manual - Version 4 Spring 1999 25 2.2 Early Start and Relationship Reports To create Schedule Reports in a tabular format select Tools, Tabular Reports, Schedule from the Upper Menu Bar. You will see a list of all of the currently available (previously created) reports. DO NOT USE THESE REPORTS. Primavera Lab Manual - Version 4 Spring 1999 26 ADD your own reports because, in general, those already created were constructed for the Tutorial and refer to the many sample projects provided with the program. We will be creating our own reports to meet our specifications. There are many different ways to provide report information. First let’s have a look at all of the variables we have to choose from. First is the CONTENT window. Primavera Lab Manual - Version 4 Spring 1999 27 Just Click On OK – it really doesn’t matter what the Report ID is. We can put many different items on our report. We can skip lines to enhance the presentation too. Here are some of the choices you have in addition to the activity code line. Use the scroll bar on the right to see all of the choices. For example, you may want a report to have the workday number as well as the calendar date – use Workperiod. Let’s move to the FORMAT window. Primavera Lab Manual - Version 4 Spring 1999 28 Here we can decide what information to show on the activity code line. The only thing you should ever mask here for class is activity codes and perhaps calendar. This information is good to use when you are on a big project and want to prepare reports for certain people. Look below for a list of choices here. You can sort your reports on Early Start, the earliest activities first and the last activity last. Or you can sort by Total Float with all the activities with zero total float first and those with the most total float last. Or you can make a combination of many parameters. An example is a TFES report, where activities are first sorted by total float and then by early start. Last is the SELECTION window. The criteria are shown below. The High and Low Value Range is used for those conditions requiring that notation. For example, when Select = TF, IS = WR, LOW Value could = 0 and High Value = 10, thus providing only activities in the report with 0 to 10 days of Total Float. Primavera Lab Manual - Version 4 Spring 1999 29 This window lets you limit the activities shown on the report based on criteria you select. These schedule parameters allow the user to select only activities with a calendar ID of 2, TF< 0, or an activity ID that contains ELE. This is the SELECT column. The IS column looks like this. Here you can establish the boundaries of the criteria The ANY or ALL diamonds on the Selection window allow you to make multiple criteria mutually inclusive or exclusive. If you need a combination of effects use the Level Selection in combination with the ANY and ALL criteria. • The Content window is used to describe what is in the report. • The Format window is used to describe, among other things, how the report is to be sorted. • The Selection window is used to the limit number of activities on each report. Practice 2.2 1. Prepare a report sorted by early start and containing the Work period in addition to the Activity Code Line. 2. Prepare a TFES report – remember to sort first by TF and then by ES. Include the Resource 1 in your printout. 3. Prepare a relationship report using the detailed predecessor and successor from the CONTENT screen. Put the activity first, then the predecessor and then the successor and skip a line before the next activity. 4. Prepare a report with the activities sorted by their ID’s. Limit your report to those activities with ID’s from 40 to 90. 5. Submit your reports, stapled and including your name in a prominent position, when you have completed this practice exercise. 2.3 Project Diagrams Primavera Lab Manual - Version 4 Spring 1999 30 As you can see there are a lot of choices again. Let’s try the Pure Logic Diagram. Again ADD your own, DO NOT USE one that’s already been established. Go to the next page to see the next screen. Primavera Lab Manual - Version 4 Spring 1999 31 Say OK; the number doesn’t matter. The CONTENT window here allows the user to select what will appear on the network diagram. I generally delete the percent complete, remaining duration, and calendar ID from projects with one calendar, which are not in progress. I usually select the late dates for display in addition to the defaults. Make these choices now. Also check the box “Connectors to excluded activities.” Use the Rev title area to write your Name and ID number. Change the title from PL-04, or whatever you have, to something meaningful to you regarding a network diagram. Then move to the FORMAT window.
